You can have corporation vote to lock/unlock bpo, each share has one voice, majority decides. Locked bpo can still be used to build stuff, but can't be moved without unlock vote. Directors(not 100% sure) and shareholders can start votes.
It's a good way to let your corp members use a bpo without having to be afraid that someone would steal it.

Also, the BPO can be used for remote research. My research services Spreadsheets: Top speed calculation - Halo Implant stats |

Edited by: Taikun on 19/01/2008 12:55:53 There is away for a CEO to 'unlock' BPOs using game mechanics bypassing the vote requirement.
Something to do with not paying fees on the office rentals etc.
Also, directors / shareholders can vote to remove the CEO from their position. So, if your the CEO and all the BPOs are yours... you theoretically COULD lose them.
I think...

You are correct. If you unrent an office all locked down and non locked down items become available in the deliveries hangar. However this has been deemed an exploit.

Yep and that is completely valid. It's also a great way for people to split responsibility on shared assets, meaning you need to enter into an agreement with other trusted parties to stage your theft. That's probably why EBANK will be successful (if it isn't already considered so). The chances of one person scamming are always a very valid risk. The chances of 3 other trusted people joining in the scam are far lower.
Now, keep enough risk out of one person's hand (ie not enough to entice one person to scam) by doing this split, and a scam involving half of the EBANK board of director's would probably require an astronomical amount of isk (ie to cause the collective to scam)
Food for thought.

Edited by: Taikun on 19/01/2008 15:18:58 Just to clarify a little matter.
The above post looks like it was signed by "Taikun". Ricdic is not my charactor and I believe it was simply a formatting error on his behalf.
But wouldn't it be an upsetting situation to many if he and I turned out to be the same individual?

P.S. Thanks for expanding/clarifying my understanding on locking BPOs Ric.
